ENGINEER  TRAINING  MANUAL,  UNITED  STATES  ARMY. 


APPENDIX  NO.  2. 


INSTRUCTIONS  FOR  THE  USE  OF  COMPANY  AND  REGIMENTAL  FORMS. 

GENERAL  INSTRUCTIONS. 

The  ultimate  end  for  which  a  company  is  created  and  maintained  is  to  render  perfect 
service  on  the  field  of  battle.  To  attain  this  end  many  things  are  required  and  a 
realization  of  the  correct  proportion,  each  bear  to  the  other  is  necessary. 

Efficiency  in  paper  work  will  not  render  the  company  efficient  for  field  service.  It 
is  required  by  law  and  regulations  and  can  not  be  slighted,  nor  done  in  a  slip-shod 
manner.  If  it  is  done  thoroughly  and  accurately  at  first,  it  ends  there.  If  it  is  done 
otherwise,  it  requires  additional  time  of  officers  and  enlisted  men  to  correct  the  errors 
and  mistakes.  Time  will  thus  be  deducted  from  that  allotted  to  other  duties,  and 
efficiency  will  decrease. 

The  instructions  on  the  blank  forms  have  the  same  weight  as  regulations  and  should 
be  followed  explicitly.  Read  the  instructions  before  making  out  any  form. 

Company  officers  should  know  when  a  paper  is  right.  The  best  way  to  learn  when  a 
paper  is  right  is  to  make  out  a  set  of  blanks  yourself.  Train  your  company  clerk  to 
do  the  work  and  train  an  understudy  at  the  same  time  who  can  instantly  replace 
the  company  clerk. 

Individual  records  of  enlisted  men. — When  a  soldier  enlists  the  following  blank  forms 
are  filled  out  by  the  recruiting  officer  and  mailed  to  The  Adjutant  General  of  the  Army. 

Enlistment  paper,  Form  No.  22,  A.  G.  O. 

Physical  examination  for  enlistment,  Form  No.  135,  A.  G.  0. 

Identification  record  card,  Form  No.  260,  A.  G.  O. 

Note. — Photograph  and  photographic  negative  required  for  Regular  Army 
only  (suspended  during  war). 

Designation  of  beneficiary,  Form  No.  380,  A.  G.  0. 

The  service  record,  Form  No.  29,  A.  G.  O.,  is  also  started  by  the  recruiting  officer 
and  sent  to  the  commander  of  the  post,  camp  or  regiment  at  the  same  time  that  the 
soldier  is  sent  forward  to  the  organization  in  which  he  enlisted  or  to  which  he  is 
assigned. 

The  report  of  assignment  in  the  service  record  is  detached  at  the  headquarters  of 
the  post,  camp  or  regiment  to  which  the  soldier  is  sent  and  forwarded  by  the  com- 
■fcf  mander  thereof  to  The  Adjutant  General  of  the  Army.  The  service  record  itself  is 
j  sent  to  the  company  to  which  the  soldier  is  assigned  by  the  post,  camp  or  regimental 
commander.

REMARKS. 

In  making  out  the  “Sick  report”  each  day  the  names  of  all  those  who  were  indi¬ 
cated  on  the  preceding  day  as  being  in  “hospital”  or  “sick  in  quarters”  will  be 
copied;  also  any  additional  names  of  members  of  the  company  who  require  medical 
attention.  The  medical  officer  indicates  under  the  heading  “ Disposition ”  whether 
the  men  whose  names  appear  in  the  report  shall  be  returned  to  duty,  admitted  to  the 
hospital,  or  carried  as  sick  in  quarters.  He  also  determines  whether  or  not  the  illness 
is  in  line  of  duty,  and  if  it  comes  under  the  provisions  of  G.  O.  31,  1912,  he  makes  the 
notation  “No.  G.  0.  31,  1912,”  under  the  heading  “Line  of  duty.” 

The  “Sick  report”  is  used  continuously  until  the  book  is  filled. 

The  signature  of  the  medical  officer  and  of  the  company  commander  are  written  on 
the  line  following  the  last  name  for  that  day.

One  day  in  each  alternate  month  of  the  season  of  practical  instruction,  not  exceeding 
three  days  in  each  year,  the  use  of  the  reserve  ration  with  individual  cooking  will  be 
required  by  all  troops  in  the  field  for  purposes  of  instruction. 

4.  FIELD  RATION. 

The  field  ration  is  the  ration  prescribed  in  orders  by  the  commander  of  the  field 
forces.  It  consists  of  the  reserve  ration  in  whole  or  in  part,  supplemented  by  articles 
of  food  requisitioned  or  purchased  locally,  or  shipped  from  the  rear,  provided  such 
supplements  or  substitutes  correspond  generally  with  the  component  articles  or 
substitutive  equivalents  of  the  garrison  ration. 

6.  EMERGENCY  RATION.  , 

The  emergency  ration  is  furnished,  in  addition  to  the  regular  ration,  as  required  for 
troops  on  active  campaign  or  in  the  field  for  purposes  of  instruction,  and  will  not  be 
opened  except  by  order  of  an  officer  or  in  extremity,  nor  used  when  regular  rations  are 
obtainable. 

Ration  returns  upon  which  emergency  rations  are  drawn  will  bear  the  certificate 
of  the  organization  commander  that  such  rations  are  required  for  the  enlisted  men  of 
his  organization  and  that  the  money  value  of  any  rations  previously  drawn  by  him, 
and  improperly  opened  or  lost,  has  been  charged  against  the  person  responsible. 

Company  and  detachment  commanders  are  responsible  for  the  proper  care  and  use 
of  emergency  rations  carried  on  the  person  of  the  soldier.  (C.  A.  R.  No.  8,  June  15, 
1914.) 

1207.  In  adjusting  charges  to  be  made  against  enlisted  men  or  others  on  account 
of  increased  expense  to  the  Government  for  their  subsistence,  the  value  of  the  garrison 
ration  will  be  estimated  at  30  cents,  the  Filipino  ration  at  20  cents,  and  the  travel 
ration  at  40  cents. 

LIQUID  COFFEE. 

1208.  When  an  enlisted  man  or  an  applicant  for  enlistment,  supplied  with  cooked 
or  travel  rations,  travels  unaccompanied  by  an  officer,  and  it  is  impracticable  to  cook 
coffee  en  route,  he  may  be  supplied  with  funds  for  the  purchase  of  liquid  coffee  in 
lieu  of  the  coffee,  milk,  and  sugar  components  of  the  travel  ration,  at  the  rate  of  21 
cents  a  day  for  the  number  of  days  that  the  travel  is  expected  to  cover,  to  be  paid  to 
each  man  on  the  order  of  the  commanding  officer  who  directs  the  journey,  a  copy  of  the

order  being  filed  with  the  voucher  on  which  payment  is  made.  When  an  enlisted 
man  or  an  applicant  for  enlistment,  supplied  with  cook  or  travel  rations,  travels  under 
the  command  of  an  officer,  and  it  is  impracticable  to  cook  coffee  en  route,  funds  at  the 
rate  of  21  cents  a  day  for  a  similar  purpose  may  be  transferred  to  the  officer  to  be  dis¬ 
bursed  and  accounted  for.  At  the  end  of  the  journey  all  money  in  excess  of  21  cents 
a  day  for  each  man  for  the  actual  number  of  days  traveled  will  be  transferred  to  the 
nearest  quartermaster.  Should  any  part  of  the  21  cents  a  day  for  the  actual  number 
of  days  traveled  be  unexpended  it  will  be  transferred  to  company  commanders  pro 
rata,  to  be  taken  up  by  them  as  part  of  the  company  fund.  When  recruits  en  route  to 
different  organizations  or  corps  serving  at  over-sea  stations  arrive  at  a  recruiting  depot, 
however,  the  unexpended  funds  will  be  transferred  to  the  mess  officer  and  taken  up 
by  him  as  part  of  the  mess  funds.  (G.  A.  R.  No.  53.)

NOTES. 

Forage  requisitions  are  made  out  at  the  beginning  of  every  month  or  at  such  other 
times  as  necessary.  When  made  during  the  month  for  animals  that  have  just  arrived, 
they  are  called  special  requisitions.  In  the  case  of  special  requisitions,  there  are  no 
additions  or  reductions  to  be  made.  The  number  of  animals  is  stated  in  the  form 
(Q.  M.  C.  Form  218),  and  the  rations  computed  from  the  date  of  arrival  to  the  end  of 
the  month.

ENGINEER  TRAINING  MANUAL - NO.  2. 


*The  forage  requisition  at  the  beginning  of  each  month  is  made  out  as  follows: 

In  the  first  column  is  stated  the  number  of  animals  on  hand  the  first  day  of  the 
preceding  month  plus  the  number  for  which  special  requisitions  were  made. 

In  the  “Addition”  column  is  stated  the  number  of  animals  Jhat  were  attached 
to  the  company  during  the  preceding  month  for  which  no  special  requisitions  were 
made. 

In  the  “Deductions”  column  is  stated  the  number  of  apimals  detached  during 
the  preceding  month. 

Then  the  net  total  is  figured  adding  the  additions  to  and  subtracting  the  deduc¬ 
tions  from  the  original  number. 

Rations  are  computed  for  the  net  total  by  multiplying  the  net  total  by  the  number 
of  days  in  the  month  for  which  the  rations  are  to  be  drawn . 

Explanation  of  additions  and  deductions  are  made  as  shown  in  the  sample  requisi¬ 
tion  above. 

The  amounts  of  grain,  etc.,  are  then  computed  from  A.  R.  1077  (see  below),  and 
these  amounts  are  stated  in  the  column  “Required  allowance.” 

The  amounts  “on  hand”  are  computed  from  the  “Explanations  of  additions  and 
deductions”  by  talcing  the  difference  between  the  minus  rations  and  the  plus 
rations  for  the  different  classes  of  animals  and  multiplying  these  differences  by  the 
allowance  of  grain,  etc.,  for  the  various  classes.  The  difference  between  the  amount 
required  and  that  on  hand  gives  the  amount  to  be  supplied.

INSTRUCTIONS. 

GENERAL. 

1.  The  duty  roster  for  troops,  batteries,  companies,  and 
detachments  shows  the  names  of  all  enlisted  men  of  the 
organization,  and  consists  of  two  parts: 

The  roster  for  guard  duty; 

The  roster  for  other  duties. 

The  man  longest  off  duty  (as  indicated  by  roster  numerals 
in  the  former  case,  and  by  the  “  date  when  last  performed  ” 
in  the  latter)  is  the  first  for  detail  for  such  duty. 

GUARD  ROSTER. 

2.  Each  man  is  each  day  credited  with  the  number  of 
days  that  he  has  remained  present  and  available  for  duty 
since  the  beginning  of  his  last  tour. 

3.  When  nonavailable  on  account  of  absence  without 
leave,  in  arrest,  in  confinement,  or  on  pass,  men  will  be 
credited  the  same  as  they  would  have  been  had  they  re¬ 
mained  present  and  available  for  duty,  the  numerals  being 
inserted  in  the  same  square  just  above  the  letters  indicat¬ 
ing  their  proper  status.  Men  returning  to  duty  from 
sick,  from  furlough,  detached  service,  extra  duty ,v  or 
special  duty  all  start  in  where  they  left  off.  Departures 
from  this  instruction  may  be  authorized  by  the  command¬ 
ing  officer  when  a  strict  application  would  allow  an  im¬ 
proper  advantage  or  work  hardship. 

4.  The  abbreviations  should  be  strictly  adhered  to. 

5.  If  available,  but  not  required  for  guard  duty,  in  the 

proper  place  opposite  the  soldier’s  name  will  be  placed  the 
numeral  showing  the  number  of  days  .since  he  performed 
guard  duty.  The  performance  of  a  tour  of  main  guard 
duty  is  indicated  thus:  Any  special  guard  duty,  such 

as  stable  guard,  may  be  similarly  indicated,  with  the  addi¬ 
tion  of  the  initial  letter  in  the  open  half  space,  thus: 

6.  The  detail  for  supernumerary  should,  as  a  rule,  fall 
on  die  man  next  for  detail.  This,  however,  may  be  varied 
so  as  to  “even  up”  the  detail. 

ROSTER  FOR  OTHER  DUTIES. 

7.  At  the  beginning  of  the  month  insert  in  the  proper 
column,  opposite  each  man’s  name,  the  date  when  he  last 
performed  the  duty  specified,  using  the  abbreviated  name 
of  the  month  and  the  numeral. 

8.  When  a  detail  for  any  one  of  these  duties  has  been 
determined  upon  (in  accordance  with  the  general  instruc¬ 
tions)  draw  a  line  through  this  date  and  insert  in  the  same 
space  the  numeral  indicating  the  day  of  the  month.  If 
detailed  again  for  this  duty  during  the  month,  draw  a  line 
through  this  last  date  and  again  insert  in  the  same  space 
the  new  numeral,  and  so  on.  (See  model  roster.) 

9.  The  necessary  entries  relative  to  any  regular  duties 
not  specified  on  the  roster  will  be  shown  in  one  of  the 

3-1536 


ENGINEER  TRAINING  MANUAL - NO.  2. 


4 


blank  columns  provided  for  that  purpose,  the  nature  of 
the  duty  being  shown  in  the  heading  of  the  column. 

10.  In  case  of  a  detail  for  detached  service,  a  hyphen 
should  follow  the  numeral,  which  merely  indicates  the  day 
of  departure.  But,  since  detached,  service  is  the  only 
variable  duty  as  regards  length  of  time,  it  is  the  day  of 
return  that  determines  “when  last  performed;”  hence, 
upon  the  man’s  return  from  detached  service,  draw  a  line 
through  date  of  departure  and  insert  the  date  of  return 
after  the  hyphen. 

11.  At  the  end  of  the  month  the  dates  when  last  per¬ 
formed  are  transferred  to  the  proper  spaces  on  the  roster 
for  the  ensuing  month. 

ABBREVIATIONS  FOR  GUARD  ROSTER.

INSTRUCTIONS  FOR  COMPANY  COUNCIL  BOOK. 

1.  Paragraph  1220,  Army  Regulations,  1913,  requiring  that  money  accruing  from 
the  ration  and  savings  account  of  an  organization  will  be  spent  only  for  food,  makes 
it  necessary  to  keep  the  receipts  and  expenditures  on  account  of  the  company  mess 
separate  from  other  funds. 

2.  Entries  for  receipts  should  state  date  of  entry,  from  whom  (person  or  firm),  what 
for,  for  what  period  (in  case  of  savings,  post  exchange  dividends,  pay  from  boarders, 
etc.),  and  amount.  Should  a  receipt  not  be  for  a  period,  but  only  for  a  single  trans¬ 
action,  the  date  of  the  receipt  also  should  appear,  if  different  from  the  date  of  entry. 

3.  Entries  for  expenditures  should  show  date  of  payment,  to  whom  paid,  what  for, 
and  amount;  all  briefly,  but  with  essential  points  covered  and  with  care  and 
exactness. 

4.  To  facilitate  inspection  by  post  or  battalion  commanders  and  others,  the  vouchers 
should  be  put  in  proper  shape  and  filed  in  proper  order.  Every  voucher  should  be 
folded  to  convenient  size  for  handling,  pasted  on  proper  size  paper,  if  necessary,  and 
indorsed,  for  instance,  thus  on  the  first  fold: 

No.  6. 

January  7,  1915. 

$50. 

5.  There  should  be  a  voucher  for  all  moneys  received,  from  whatever  source,  and 
for  all  moneys  expended.  For  example,  in  case  of  the  company  pool  collections, 
when  the  money  is  turned  over  to  the  company  commander  a  voucher  of  this  tenor 
should  also  be  turned  in: 

Madison  Barracks,  N.  Y., 

January  7,  1915. 

Turned  over  to  Capt.  John  Smith  fifty  dollars  ($50),  collections  from  the  company 
pool  table  for  December,  1914. 

H.  A.  Jones, 

Q.  M.  Sergt.  Co.  C,  24th  Infantry. 

Under  rare  circumstances,  especially  in  the  field,  it  may  happen  that  it  is  not 
practicable  to  get  a  receipt  for  money  expended.  In  such  case  the  officer  should 
certify  to  the  expenditure,  using  his  certificate  as  a  voucher. 

6.  In  case  of  transfer  of  the  company  fund,  a  receipt  of  this  form  is  suggested: 

Received  from  First  Lieut.  John  A.  Smith,  Twenty-fourth  Infantry,  the  fund  of 
Company  A,  Twenty-fourth  Infantry,  amounting  to  $500,  as  follows: 

Bank .  $450 

Cash .  50 

James  Jones, 

'  Captain ,  24th  Infantry. 

To  transfer  a  company  fund  that  is  deposited  in  the  bank,  it  is  merely  necessary 
to  write  the  cashier  of  the  bank  a  letter  of  this  tenor: 

I  have  the  honor  to  inform  you  that  I  have  this  day  transferred  the  company  fund, 
Company  C,  Twenty-fourth  Infantry,  to  Capt.  John  Smith,  Twenty-fourth  Infantry, 
who  will  from  now  on  have  authority  to  draw  against  the  fund. 

His  signature  appears  below. 

Or  a  check  for  the  amount  in  the  bank  may  be  drawn  in  favor  of  the  relieving  officer 
and  turned  over  to  him. 

Caution. — When  receiving  a  company  fund,  always  obtain  from  the.  former  cus¬ 
todian  a  certified  statement  showing:  (a)  All  bills  that  the  company  owes,  ( h )  all 
amounts  due  the  company,  and  (c)  a  list  of  outstanding  checks.  If  the  company 
owes  no  bills,  if  nothing  is  due  the  company,  and  if  there  are  no  outstanding  checks, 
these  facts  should  be  stated.  This  certified  statement  should  be  made  on  an  appro¬ 
priate  page  in  the  company  fund  book.

ENGINEER  TRAINING  MANUAL - NO.  2. 


7.  When  deposited  in  a  bank  the  company  fund  should  be  deposited,  for  instance, 
as  “Company  fund,  Company  C,  Twenty-fourth  Infantry,”  and  all  checks  drawn 
against  the  fund  should  be  signed,  for  instance: 

Company  Fund,  Co.  C,  24th  Infantry. 

John  A.  Smith, 

Captain ,  24th  Infantry.

ENGINEER  TRAINING  MANUAL - NO.  2. 


General  Orders, 1  War  Department, 

No.  40.  /  Washington,  August  SO,  1916. 

The  instructions  for  the  preparation  of  Army  pay  rolls  and  authorized  abbreviations 
published  as  Quartermaster  Corps  Form  No.  70,  and  model  remarks  for  Army  pay  rolls 
published  as  Quartermaster  Corps  Form  No.  69,  are  hereby  rescinded,  and  the  follow¬ 
ing  is  published  in  their  stead  for  the  information  of  all  concerned: 

INSTRUCTIONS  FOR  THE  PREPARATION  OF  ARMY  PAY  ROLLS. 

1.  The  pay  rolls  are  not  only  the  guide  for  the  immediate  payment  of  the  troops 
interested,  but  when  filed  in  the  Treasury  Department  they  become  the  record  to 
which  reference  will  thereafter  be  had  in  the  investigation  and  settlement  of  claims 
or  questions  affecting  the  pay  of  the  men  whose  names  are  borne  thereon  for  the 
period  involved.  All  officers  are  therefore  enjoined  to  exercise  every  care  to  make 
the  pay  rolls  with  which  they  are  concerned  complete  in  every  detail. 

2.  Composition  of  a  Pay  Roll. 

A  pay  roll  will  be  made  up  of  one  copy  of  War  Department  Form  No.  366  and  as 
many  forms  366a  as  may  be  necessary,  fastened  together  along  the  edge  indicated  by 
sewing  or  by  means  of  a  stapling  machine  or  other  permanent  fastening,  but  not  by 
use  of  glue  or  mucilage. 

3.  Number  of  Copies  and  Disposition  of  Same. 

Pay  rolls  will  be  made  out  in  triplicate,  and  dated  from  the  first  to  the  last  day  of 
the  month.  Two  of  the  three  copies  (one  being  the  signed  roll)  will  be  forwarded 
to  the  quartermaster  and  the  third  copy  duly  extended  will  be  retained  with  the 
records  of  the  organization. 

4.  Signing  of  Rolls. 

4 

Only  one  copy  will  be  signed  by  the  men,  and  when  carbon  copies  are  made  the 
original  will  always  be  the  copy  to  be  signed.  The  roll  to  be  signed  will  always  be 
completed  and  fastened  together  before  being  signed.  When  it  is  known  that  pay¬ 
ment  is  to  be  made  by  check  none  of  the  rolls  will  be  signed  by  the  men.  Only  men 
who  are  to  be  paid  will  sign  the  roll;  those  who  for  any  reason  are  not  to  be  paid  will 
not  sign;  if,  however,  in  such  case,  the  roll  be  inadvertently  signed,  the  signature  will 
be  erased.  In  cases  of  stoppages  equaling  or  exceeding  the  pay  due,  complete  data 
will  be  carried  to  the  next  succeeding  rolls  until  a  sufficient  amount  of  pay  is  due  to 
satisfy  all  stoppages  and  leave  a  balance  for  the  soldier.  (See  par.  15  below.)  If  for 
any  reason  a  soldier  whose  name  appears  on  the  pay  roll  does  not  sign  the  roll  and  is 
not  to  be  paid  by  check,  a  line  will  be  drawn  through  the  space  intended  for  his 
signature. 


5.  Typewritten  and  Carbon  Copies  Authorized. 

The  preparation  of  pay  rolls  on  a  typewriting  machine  is  authorized  provided  a 
record  ribbon  is  used.  The  making  of  carbon  copies  is  also  authorized,  but  they 
must  be  clear  and  legible  throughout,  and  the  original  copy  and  the  first  carbon  copy 
must  be  forwarded  to  the  quartermaster,  who  will  in  turn  forward  the  original  copy, 
with  his  account  current,  to  the  Quartermaster  General  of  the  Army.  Quartermasters 
will  not  be  required  to  accept  carbon  copies  that  are  not  clear  and  legible  throughout, 
and  they  are  authorized  to  return  illegible  copies  with  request  for  legible  ones. 

6.  Names  to  be  Entered  on  Roll. 

The  names  of  officers  of  the  Regular  Army  will  not  be  entered  on  the  roll,  but  all 
enlisted  men  will  be  taken  up  thereon  from  the  date  of  receipt  of  notice  of  their  assign¬ 
ment,  whether  or  not  they  have  yet  joined,  and  will  be  entered  in  the  column  “  Names, 
Present  and  Absent,  and  Rank,”  in  the  following  order:  First,  noncommissioned 
officers,  in  the  order  of  the  grade  given  in  paragraph  9,  Army  Regulations,  1913,  the 
names  under  each  grade-heading  appearing  in  the  order  of  the  dates  of  warrants; 
second,  all  others,  except  buglers,  first-class  privates,  and  privates  in  alphabetical 
order  of  grade;  third,  buglers;  fourth,  first-class  privates;  fifth,  privates.  The  names 
of  the  men  under  each  grade-heading,  except  noncommissioned  officers,  will  appear 
alphabetically.  Lance  corporals  will  be  carried  under  the  heading  of  “First-class 
privates”  or  “Privates,”  depending  on  the  actual  grade  held 


ENGINEER  TRAINING  MANUAL - NO.  2. 


95 


The  names  and  the  headings  will  follow  one  another  without  interval,  except  when 
made  necessary  by  the  use  of  two  or  more  lines,  in  the  column  of  “Remarks”  after 
a  name. 

Men  on  detached  service  will  be  carried  on  the  roll  of  the  organization  to  which 
they  belong  in  their  proper  place  with  remarks  showing  them  on  detached  service 
and  place,  if  known. 

In  all  cases  the  last  name  will  be  written  first,  e.  g.,  Smith,  John  A.,  and  not  John 
A.  Smith.  Care  will  be  taken  to  have  the  names  correctly  spelled  and  the  dates 
of  enlistment  correct,  and  the  signatures  must  correspond  exactly  with  the  names 
in  the  column,  “Names,  Present  and  Absent,  and  Rank.” 

7.  Detachment  Rolls. 

The  names  of  men  mustered  for  pay  at  stations  where  their  companies  or  organiza¬ 
tions  are  not  mustered  may  be  borne  on  one  consolidated  pay  roll. 

All  detachment  pay  rolls  for  detachments  composed  of  various  organizations  will 
show  in  a  column  ruled  for  that  purpose  the  company,  battery,  troop,  or  other  organi¬ 
zation  to  which  each  man  belongs. 

8.  Ruling  Extra  Columns. 

The  use  of  dots  and  the  word  “ditto”  is  prohibited,  but  when  items  of  the  same 
character,  such  as  subsistence  credit  sales,  clothing  due  United  States,  post  exchange, 
and  post  laundry,  are  to  be  made  against  a  sufficiently  large  number  of  men,  columns 
may  be  ruled  therefor  in  the  space  under  “Remarks.” 

9.  By  Whom  and  to  What  Date  Paid. 

In  the  cases  of  soldiers  who  were  last  paid  to  a  date  different  from  that  to  which 
the  organization  was  last  paid,  or  by  a  different  quartermaster,  as  shown  by  the 
certificate  of  the  commanding  officer  on  the  first  page,  the  date  to  which  last  paid 
and  the  name  of  the  quartermaster  will  be  stated  against  their  names  under  “Re¬ 
marks.” 

10.  Column  “Remarks” — Data  Opposite  Names. 

All  data  affecting  a  soldier’s  pay  will  be  entered  in  the  column  “Remarks”  in  the 
manner  indicated  under  the  caption  “Model  Remarks”  below. 

Only  such  remarks  as  affect  a  soldier’s  pay  will  be  entered. 

Opposite  the  name  of  the  person  concerned  will  be  carefully  noted — 

(а)  All  changes  of  rank  or  grade.  In  case  of  appointment  the  number,  date,  and 
source  of  order  will  be  stated;  in  case  of  reduction  the  date  of  receipt  of  order  at  sol¬

such  prisoners  have  been  held  for  trial,  tried,  or  discharged  without  trial,  and,  when 
tried,  whether  acquitted  or  convicted,  with  dates  of  absence. 

( e )  Everything  else  affecting  the  pay  of  every  enlisted  man,  so  as  to  insure  justice 
to  him  and  to  the  United  States. 

As  many  lines  as  may  be  necessary  to  avoid  crowding  will  be  taken  after  each 
name,  and  only  one  line  of  written  matter  will  be  placed  on  one  ruled  line.  When 
the  matter  is  typewritten,  remarks  exceeding  one  line  will  be  single  spaced  without 
regard  to  the  ruled  lines  on  the  paper. 

11.  Clothing  Account. 

For  regulations  concerning  the  settlement  of  a  soldier’s  clothing  account,  see 
paragraphs  1159-1169,  Army  Regulations,  1913.

When  soldiers  are  retained  in  the  service  with  the  colors  to  make  good  time  lost, 
the  cause  of  such  retention  must  be  stated.  In  case  a  soldier  who  must  be  kept  in 
the  service  beyond  the  date  of  expiration  of  term  of  enlistment  in  order  to  make 
good  time  lost  and  is  in  confinement  at  or  after  date  of  expiration  of  term  of  enlist¬

13.  Changes  Since  Last  Muster  for  Pay. 

(a)  Names  of  men  belonging  to  a  command  will  be  immediately  followed  by  those 
of  the  men  who  have  ceased  to  belong  to  it  since  last  muster  for  pay.  These  will 
be  classed  in  the  following  order:  (1)  Discharged,  (2)  furloughed  to  the  reserve,  (3) 
transferred,  (4)  died,  (5)  retired,  (6)  deserted,  (7)  missing.  Under  each  heading 
the  names  will  appear  in  the  order  prescribed  in  paragraph  6  above.

discharged)  will  be  noted  on  the  roll. 

(c)  In  these  cases:  (1)  Desertion;  (2)  dishonorable  discharge;  (3)  discharged  for 
desertion;  (4)  missing;  (5)  and  discharge,  honorable  discharge,  or  furlough  to  the 
reserve  when  the  stoppages  equal  or  exceed  the  amount  due  soldier;  the  soldier’s 
account  will  be  stated  in  full,  showing  rank  or  grade,  date  to  which  last  paid,  and 
by  whom.  All  stoppages  and  charges  (special  care  being  taken  to  note  all  dues  to 
post  exchanges,  company  fund,  etc.),  and  credits  for  deposits,  etc.,  and  the  balance 
due  the  United  States  or  due  the  soldier  on  account  of  clothing,  and  when  the  desertion, 
discharge,  or  furlough  occurs  within  the  first  six  months  of  enlistment  the  money 
value  of  clothing  drawn  since  enlistment  must  also  be  stated;  also  dates  and  places 
will  be  given,  the  number,  date,  and  source  of  order  or  other  authority. 

( d )  In  case  of  honorable  discharge  (except  as  prescribed  in  (c)  above  and  ( e )  below),

only  the  rank  or  grade,  the  date  of  discharge,  furlough,  transfer,  death,  or  retirement, 
and  the  number,  date,  and  source  of  the  order  or  other  authority  will  be  given. 

( e )  The  names  of  men  who  are  discharged  during  the  period  covered  by  the  pay  roll 
and  who  reenlist  in  the  same  company  during  that  time  will  be  carried  in  the  body 
of  the  roll  only. 


14.  Deserters. 

The  name  of  a  soldier  who  has  joined  from  desertion  since  last  muster  for  pay  will 
be  placed  in  the  body  of  the  roll  only.  The  following  data  will  appear  on  the  first 
roll:  The  same  data  that  appeared  on  the  rolls  on  which  the  soldier  was  dropped  as  a 
deserter;  a  statement  of  his  new  account  opened  after  date  of  return  to  military 
control  (the  account  at  date  of  desertion  and  the  account  since  return  to  military 
control  being  stated  separately);  the  place  and  date  of  return  to  military  control; 
and  whether  he  was  apprehended  or  surrendered.  On  subsequent  rolls  until  the  result 
of  the  trial  has  been  published,  or  the  case  otherwise  disposed  of,  will  appear  the 
remark,  “Awaiting  trial  (or  result  of  trial)  for  desertion.  For  statement  of  account, 

see  rolls  for - ,  191 — .  ’  ’  On  the  rolls  following  the  final  disposition  of  the  case 

will  appear  a  complete  statement  of  the  soldier’s  account  at  the  date  of  such  dis¬ 
position  of  the  case,  the  ante-desertion  and  post-desertion  accounts  to  be  stated 
separately,  including  the  number,  source,  and  date  of  the  order  announcing  his  return 
to  duty,  or  the  result  of  the  trial. 

The  restoration  to  duty  of  a  deserter  by  competent  authority,  namely,  by  the  com¬ 
mander  who  would  be  authorized  to  direct  that  he  be  brought  to  trial,  can  be  ordered 
only  in  case  the  desertion  is  admitted,  and  must  not  be  confused  with  the  removal 
(by  the  order  of  such  commander  or  the  War  Department)  of  a  charge  of  desertion 
erroneously  entered  on  the  rolls  against  a  soldier. 

15.  When  a  soldier  is  not  paid  on  a  pay  roll  the  organization  commander  must  not 
attempt  to  settle  the  account  by  striking  a  balance  between  the  undrawn  pay  and 
indebtedness,  but  the  account  as  a  whole  must,  except  as  provided' in  paragraph  14, 
be  carried  forward  to  succeeding  rolls  until  the  quartermaster  can  collect  all  dues 
to  the  United  States  and  pay  a  balance  to  the  soldier.  (See  A.  R.  1374,  1913.) 

16.  Where  changes  occur  in  a  quartermaster’s  figures  in  the  “Balance  paid  ”  column, 
the  company  commander  or  officer  witnessing  the  payment  must  certify  in  the  margin 
of  the  roll  the  amount  actually  paid  the  soldier. 

MODEL  REMARKS  FOR  ARMY  PAY  ROLLS. 

17.  These  model  remarks  are  meant  to  cover  only  the  more  common  cases.  Cases 
arising  not  covered  herein  will  be  stated  according  to  facts  of  record. 

Any  pay  or  allowances  that  may  have  accrued  during  a  previous  enlistment  can  not 
be  paid  by  a  quartermaster,  but  a  claim  for  same  must  be  made  on  the  Auditor  for  the 
War  Department.

day  the  soldier  left  post  being  a  day  of  absence  and  January  15  the  day  he 
returned  to  post  being  considered  a  day  of  duty.  Hours  of  departure  and  return

guished  from  the  method  of  stating  absence  without  leave  indicated  above.  In

(3)  A  soldier  should  not  be  allowed  to  allot  his  entire  monthly  pay,  except

commander  to  secure  his  effects  and  to  prepare  the  inventory  required  by  the  126th' 
Article  of  War,  according  to  prescribed  form,  and  to  notify  nearest  relative  of  the 
fact  of  death.  Duplicates  of  the  inventory,  with  final  statements,  will  be  forwarded 
directly  to  The  Adjutant  General  of  the  Army.  (Par.  J62,  A.  R.) — [A  third 
copy  of  the  Inventory  will  be  retained  by  the  officer .] 

2.  Officers  charged  with  the  care  and  custody  of  the  effects  of  deceased  soldiers 
arc  required,  under  the  provieions  of  the  127th  Article  of  War,  to  deliver  the  same, 
or  the  net  proceeds  thereof,  to  the  legal  representatives  of  the  deceased.  Should  the 
effects  of  a  deceased  soldier  not  be  claimed  within  a  reasonable  time,  they  will  be 
sold  by  a  council  of  administration  under  the  authority  of  the  post  commander,  and 
the  proceeds  transferred  to  the  commander  of  the  company  to  which  the  deceased 
belonged,  by  whom  they  will  be  deposited  with  a  paymaster  to  the  credit  of  the 
United  States.  (Par.  163,  A.  R.) 

3.  In  all  cases  of  a  sale  by  a  council  of  administration  a  detailed  statement  of  the 

proceeds,  duly  certified  by  the  council  and  commanding  officer,  will  accompany  the 
paymaster's  receipt  forwarded  by  the  company  commander  to  The  Adjutant  Gen¬ 
eral  of  the  Army.  The  statement  will  be  indorsed  :  **  Report  of  the  p.-oceeds  of  the 
effects  of _ _  late  of  company _ _ _ regi¬ 
ment  of _ who  died  at _ ,  the  _ _ day  of  _ _ t 

_ ..."  (Par.  164,  A.  R.) 

4.  The  accounts  of  deceased  soldiers  are  settled  by  the  Auditor  for  the  War 
Department,  and  the  following  is  the  order  of  distribution  provided  for  by  the  act  cf 
Congress  approved  June  30,  1906  (34  Stat.  L.,  75C):  Where  the  amount  due  the 
decedent's  estate  is  less  than  five  hundred  dollars  and  no  demand  is  presented  by  a 
duly  appointed Jegal  represen tative-of  the  estate,  the  accounting  officers  may  allow 
the  amount  found  due  to  the  decedent's  widow  or  legal  heirs  in  the  following  order 
of  precedence:  First,  to  the  widow;  second,  if  the  decedent  left  no  widow,  or  the 
widow  be  dead  at  the  .time  of  settlement,  then  to  the  children  or  their  issue,  per 
stirpes;  third, if  no  widow  or  descendants,  then  to  the  father  and  mother  in  equal 

4,  provided  the  father  has  not  abandoned  the  suppert  of  his  family,  in  which 
#to  the  mother  alone;  fourth,  if  either  the  father  or  mother  be  dead  then  to  the 
one  surviving;  fifth,  if  there  be  no  widow,  child,  father,  or  mother  at  the  date  of 
settlement,  then  id  the  brothers  and  sisters  and  children  of  deceased  brothers  and 
sisters,  per  stirpes:  Provided,  That  this  act  shall  r.ot  be  so  construed  as  to  prevent 
payment  from  the  amount  due  the  decedent's  estate  of  funeral  expenses,  provided  a 
claim  therefor  is  presented  by  the  person  or  persons  who  actually  paid  the  same  be¬ 
fore  settlement  by  the  accounting  officers. 

When  che  amount  due, to  the  decedent's  estate  exceeds  the  sum  of  fivs*hundr«d 
dollars  legal  administration  of  the  estate  is  necessary. 

Officers  are  advised  that,  in  the  cases  of  single  men,  it  is  a  safe  rule  to  dispose  of 
the  effects  as  prescribed  in  paragraph  1 63  and  leave  the  responsibility  of  distribution 
to  the  Treasury  Department.  (Par.  166,  A.  R.) 

5.  When  the  effects  of  a  deceased  soldier  have  been  destroyed,  or  there  are  no 
effects,  the  facts  will  be  fully  set  forth  on  the  form  for  inventory  of  effects.

18.  MILITARY  CORRESPONDENCE. 

NOTES  ON  MILITARY  CORRESPONDENCE. 

Headings ,  subject,  and  number  of  letter. — The  letter  will  begin  with  the  place  and 
date;  below  this,  beginning  at  the  left  margin,  will  come  the  word  “from,  ”  followed 
by  the  official  designation  of  the  writer,  or  in  the  absence  of  any  official  designation, 
the  name  of  the  writer  with  his  rank  and  regiment,  corps,  or  department;  below  this, 
also  beginning  at  the  left  margin,  will  come  the  word  “to,”  followed  by  the  official 
designation  or  the  name  of  the  person  addressed.  Next  will  come  the  subject  of  the 
communication,  indicated  as  briefly  as  possible  and  in  not  to  exceed  10  words.  The 
words  “from,”  “to,”  and  “subject”  will  begin  on  the  same  vertical  line.  The  send¬ 
ing  office  number  of  the  communication  will  appear  in  the  upper  left-hand  corner. 

In  case  of  letter  paper,  the  upper  third,  and  in  case  of  foolscap,  the  upper  fourth 
of  the  sheet,  will  be  devoted  solely  to  the  matter  described  above. 

Body. — Then  will  come  the  body  of  the  letter,  which,  when  typewritten,  will  be 
written  single  spaced,  with  a  double  space  between  paragraphs,  which  will  be  num¬ 
bered  consecutively. 

Signature. — The  body  of  the  letter  will  be  followed  by  the  signature.  If  the  rank 
and  regiment,  corps,  or  department  of  the  writer  appear  at  the  beginning  of  the  letter, 
they  will  not  appear  after  his  name ;  but  if  they  do  not  appear  at  the  beginning  of  the 
letter,  they  will  follow  under  his  name. 

Omission  of  ceremonial  forms. — All  ceremonial  forms  at  the  beginning  and  end  of 
letters,  such  as,  “Sir,”  “I  have  the  honor,”  “I  would  respectfully,”  “Very  respect¬ 
fully,”  etc.,  wall  be  omitted. 

Use  of  only  one  side  of  sheet. — Only  one  side  of  the  paper  will  be  used,  the  writing 
beginning  about  1  inch  from  the  top. 

Office  marks. — The  stamps  bearing  office  numbers  will  be  placed  on  the  back  of  the 
lower  fold  of  the  first  sheet.  The  received  and  received  back  stamps  will  be  placed 
immediately  below  the  body  of  the  letter,  and,  in  the  case  of  indorsements,  imme¬ 
diately  after  the  proper  indorsement.  When  a  communication  of  two  or  more  sheets 
is  filed,  the  back  of  the  lower  fold  of  the  first  sheet  will  be  on  the  outside,  thus  exposing 
to  view  the  office  numbers. 

Brief. — The  matter  described  under  “Heading,  subject,  and  number  of  letter”  will 
constitute  the  brief  of  the  letter. 

Inclosures. — All  inclosures  will  be  numbered  and  wall  be  given  the  proper  office 
marks.  Inclosures  will  be  noted  on  the  communication  as  shown  on  the  model. 

Indorsements. — The  writing  width  of  indorsements  will  be  the  same  as  that  of  letters. 
The  first  indorsement  will  begin  about  one-half  inch  below  the  rank  after  the  signature 
of  the  writer  of  the  letter,  and  succeeding  indorsements  will  follow  one  another  serially, 
with  a  space  about  one-half  inch  between  indorsements.  The  serial  number  of  the 
indorsement,  the  place,  the  date,  and  to  whom  written,  will  be  shown  as  in  the  model. 
Should  one  or  more  additional  sheets  be  necessary  for  indorsements,  sheets  of  the  same 
size  as  the  letter  will  be  used. 

Numbering  of  pages. — The  pages,  beginning  with  the  first,  will  be  numbered  mid¬ 
way  about  one-half  inch  from  the  bottom.  In  referring  to  an  indorsement  by  number 
the  number  of  the  page  will  also  be  given.  Thus  “5th  Ind.,  page  3  ”. 

Carbon  copies. — All  letters  and  indorsements  that  are  typewritten,  except  letters  of 
transmittal,  reports  of  taking  leave  of  absence,  periodical  reports,  and  other  communi¬ 
cations  of  a  similar  nature,  will  be  made  with  two  carbon  copies;  one  copy  will  be 
retained  for  the  records  of  the  office  in  which  the  letter  was  written,  and  the  other 
will  be  forwarded  with'  the  communication  for  the  files  of  the  first  office  in  which  a 
complete  copy  of  the  communication  is  required  for  the  records,  but  such  copy  will 
not  be  regarded  as  an  inclosure.

Office.  In  this  book  is  entered  with  ink  or  indelible  pencil  a  brief  of  each  item  of 
correspondence  in  respect  to  which  a  record  is  necessary  and  a  notation  of  the  action 
taken  thereon.  Each  item  will  be  numbered  from  one  forward  continuously  and 
without  break  for  any  new  year.  A  space  of  three  lines  will  be  left  below  each  entry 
for  use  in  continuing  the  record.  Each  item  will  be  indexed  under  its  subject,  and 
when  necessary  under  the  name  of  the  writer  and  names  of  persons  mentiohed  therein. 
The  index  entries  will  bear  numbers  corresponding  to  those  of  the  items.  The  corre¬ 
spondence  book  will  be  supplemented  by  a  “Document  file.”  The  papers  of  the  file 
will  be  numbered  to  correspond  with  the  number  of  the  items  and  of  the  index  entries, 
and  will  be  filed  according  to  their  serial  numbers.  The  files  will  contain  the  original 
documents  or  communications  when  these  are  retained,  and  carbon  or  other  legible 
copies  of  all  letters,  indorsements,  or  telegrams  sent  with  regard  to  same.  When  more 
than  one  paper  pertaining  to  the  same  item  is  placed  on  file,  the  papers  will  be  placed 
in  an  envelope,  if  practicable,  and  the  number  of  the  item  noted  thereon.

Remarks: 


(Note. — The  above  spaces  are  intended  only  for  use  for  record  purposes  at  the  headquarters  of  the  officer  appointing  the  special' 
or  general  court-martial,  and  it  is  not  intended  that  they  shall  be  filled  in  by  summary  courts,  trial  judge  advocates,  etc.] 

INSTRUCTIONS. 

1.  Submission  of  charges.— All  charges  for  trial  by  court-martial  will  be  prepared  in  triplicate,  using  the  prescribed  charge 
sheet  as  a  first  sheet  and  using  such  additional  sheets  of  ordinary  paper  as  are  required.  They  will  be  accompanied — 

(а)  Except  when  trial  is  to  be  had  by  summary  court,  by  a  brief  statement  of  the  substance  of  all  material  testimony  expected  from 
each  material  witness,  both  those  for  the  prosecution  and  those  for  the  defense,  together  with  all  available  and  necessary  informatloa 
as  to  any  other  actual  or  probable  testimony  or  evidence  in  the  case;  and 

(б)  In  the  case  of  a  soldier,  by  properly  authenticated  evidence  of  convictions,  if  any,  of  an  offense  or  offenses  committed  by  him 
during  his  current  enlistment  and  within  one  year  next  preceding  the  date  of  the  alleged  commission  by  him  of  any  offenses  set  forth  la 
the  charges. 

They  will  be  forwarded  by  the  officer  preferring  them  to  the  officer  immediately  exercising  summary  court-martial  jurisdiction  over 
the  command  to  which  the  accused  belongs,  and  will  by  him  and  by  each  superior  commander  into  whose  hands  they  may  come  either 
be  referred  to  a  court-martial- within  his  jurisdiction  for  trial,  forwarded  to  the  next  superior  authority  exercising  court-martial  juris¬ 
diction  over  the  command  to  which  the  accused  belongs  or  pertains,  or  otherwise  disposed  of  as  circumstances  may  appear  .to  require. 
(M.  C.  M.,  par.  7&.) 

2.  Investigation  of  charges.— If  the  officer  immediately  exercising  summary  court-martial  jurisdiction  over  the  command  to 
which  the  accused  belongs  or  pertains  decides  to  forward  the  charges  to  superior  authority,  he  will,  before  so  doing,  either  carefully 
investigate  them  himself  or  will  cause  an  officer  other  than  the  officer  preferring  the  charges  .to  investigate  them  carefully  and  to  report' 
to  him,  orally  or  otherwise,  the  result  of  such  investigation.  The  officer  investigating  the  charges  will  afford  to  the  accused  an  oppor¬ 
tunity -to  make  any  statement,  offer  any  evidence,  or  present  any  matter  in  extenuation  that  he  may  desire  to  have  considered  in  .con¬ 
nection  with  the  accusations  against  him.  If  the  accused  desires  to  submit  nothing,  the  indorsement  will  so  state.  In  his  indorsement 
forwarding  the  charges  to  superior  authority  the  commanding  officer  will  include: 

(а)  The  name  of  the  officer  who  investigated  the  charges; 

(б)  The  opinion  of  both  such  officer  and  himself  as  to  whether  the  several  charges  can  be  sustained; 

(e)  The  substance  of  such  material  statement,  if  any,  as  the  accused  may  have  voluntarily  made  in  connection  with  the  case  during: 
the  investigation  thereof; 

(d)  A  summary  of  the  extenuating  circumstances,  if  any,  connected  with  the  case; 

(«)  His  recommendation  of  action  to  be  taken.  (M.  C.  M.,  par.  76.) 

3.  Disposition  of  copies  of  charges. — (e)  When  trial  is  to  be  had  by  summary  court  tne  charges  will  be  completed  as  the  record  of 
trial,  a  copy  thereof  will  be  completed  as  a  copy  of  the  summary  court  record  for  the  company  or  other  commander,  and  the  other  copy- 
will,  with  the  least  practicable  delay  after  action  has  been  taken  on  the  sentence,  be  completed  and  transmitted  as  the  required  report 
of  trial  to  the  officer  exercising  general  court-martial  jurisdiction  over  the  command,  there  to  be  filed  in  the  office  of  the  judge  advocate 
for  a  period  of  two  years,  at  the  end  of  which  time  it  may  be  destroyed; 

(6)  When  trial  is  to  be  had  by  spea-ial  or  general  court-martial  the  charges  and  one  copy  thereof -will  be  referred  to  the  Vial  judge 
advocate,  the  copy  to  be  furnished  by  him  to  the  accused  or  his  counsel,  and  the  other  copy  will  be  used  for  record  purposes  in  the  office 
of  the  officer  appointing  the  trial  court,  the  top  fold  of  this  copy  of  the  charge  sheet,  in  case  of  trial  by  general  court-martial,  being  detached 
at  the  proper  time  and  forwarded  with  the  record  of  trial  to  the  Judge  Advocate  General  of  the  Army.  (M.  C.  M.,  par.  79.) 

4.  Disposition  of  evidence  of  previous  convictions.— (a)  The  evidence  of  a  previous  conviction  referred  to  a  summary  court 
or  to  the  judge  advocate  of  a  special  court  will,  after  trial,  be  returned  by  him  to  the  appointing  authority  and  will,  after  action  by  the 
latter  on  the  case,  be  returned  to  the  company  or  detachment  to  which  it  pertains, 

(6)  The  evidence  of  a  previous  conviction  referred  to  the  judge  advocate  of  a  general  court-martial  will,  if  a  company  record,  after 
trial  be  returned  by  him  direct  to  the  company  or  detachment  to  which  it  pertains,  and  a  certified  copy  thereof  will  be  attached  to  the 
record  of  trial.  (M.  C.  M.,  par.  306.)

INSTRUCTIONS. 

Failure  to  rejoin  proper  station  on  the  expiration  of  the

lecting  commutation  of  rations,  which  will  be  paid  by  any 
quartermaster  having  funds  for  the  purpose,  after  the  certificate 
rn  page  3  hereof  has  been  duly  executed. 

The  transport  quartermaster  or  agent  frill  certify  hereon  the 
dates  between  which  subsistence  was  furnished  on  the  transport, 
nd  the  date  the  vessel  arrived  in  the  United  States.

directed  to  report  on  the  expiration  of  his  furlough  will  cause 
the  certificate  on  page  3  hereof  to  be  executed,  showing  date  the 
soldier  reported. 

The  authority  under  which  a  furlough  is  granted  x  whether 
under  Army  Regulations  or  in  pursuance  of  the  orders  of  a 
superior)  should  be  cited  on  the  face  of  the  furlough  by  the 
officer  granting  it.  If  the  period  for  which  the  furlough  is  given

order  is  needed  to  accompany  the  furlough  when  presented  to  a 
disbursing  officer  for  payment  of  commutation  of  rations,  but  if 
the  period  is  manifestly  beyond  the  competency  of  the  authority 
cited,  the  furlough  should,  when  presented  for  payment  of  com¬ 
mutation  of  rations,  be  accompanied  by  copies  of  all  orders  in

tA  full  day’s  ration  is  the  unit.  Paragraph  371,  Army  Regulations,  1913,  pre¬ 
scribes  three  meals  per  day— breakfast,  dinner,  and  supper.  The  credit  in  ra¬ 
tions  to  be  given  an  organization  for  messing  men  for  a  part  of  a  day  only  should 
therefore  be  determined  by  dividing  the  total  number  of  meals  furnished  by  3, 
and  taking  the  quotient  to  the  nearest  whole  number.  A  remaining  fraction  of 
$  would  thus  be  disregarded,  whereas  ?  remaining  would  count  as  a  ration.

( e )  Equipment  G,  for  full  authorized  strength,  is  to  be  kept  on  hand  in  garrison 
and  taken  to  mobilization  and  concentration  points.  In  the  field,  equipment  A,  for 
actual  strength  only,  will  be  kept  on  hand  by  organizations.

<  (/)  Replacement  will  be  secured  by: 

Exchanging  unserviceable  property  for  serviceable. 

Submitting  vouchers  to  cover  property  lost  or  missing. 

Certificate  in  an  emergency,  in  either  of  preceding  cases,  if  serviceable  property 
is  needed  before  an  exchange  can  be  made  or  vouchers  prepared. 

( g )  Replacement  will  habitually  be  secured  through  the  accountable  (unit  supply) 
officer,  who  will  act  as  the  agent  of  the  organization  commanders,  but  such  trans¬ 
actions  will  not  ordinarily  appear  in  his  return. 

( h )  Garrison  equipment  will  be  held  on  memorandum  receipt  by  organization 
commanders  from  post  supply  officers. 

|  (i)  The  unit  supply  officer  will  perform  the  duties  of  post  or  camp  supply  officers 
only  when  no  other  officer  is  available. 

j£  (j)  The  same  system  is  made  to  apply  to  coast  defenses,  with  this  difference,  that 
there  is  no  separate  unit  supply  officer,  and  equipment  C  is  not  replaced  on  a  separate 
return,  the  return  forms  now  prescribed  being  continued  in  use. 

(k)  While  a  fixed  unit  is  not  the  basis  of  accounting,  and  in  this  respect  the  pro¬ 
posed  system  is  more  flexible  than  the  present  one,  it  is  expected  that  the  number 
of  any  item  authorized  in  Unit  equipment  manuals  for  an  organization  will  be  closely 
adhered  to,  and  marked  variations  are  required  to  be  reported  by  the  regimental 
officer  examining  the  accounts  and  investigated  by  inspectors. 

3.  The  following  forms  will  he  used: 

(a)  Return,  includes  inside  sheets  and  cover  front  and  back.  These  are  new  forms, 
not  unlike  the  return  form  now  used  by  the  Quartermaster’s  Department. 

(&)  Transfer  of  property,  invoice,  and  receipt  blank.  This  is  a  new  form,  similar 
to  that  now  in  use  in  each  of  the  departments  concerned. 

fc.  (c)  Survey  report.  Replaces  present  survey  report,  A.  G.  O.  Form  196,  with  slight 
changes. 

'  ( d )  Statement  of  charges.  This  is  a  new  form,  to  replace  similar  forms  in  use  in 
each  bureau  concerned. 

(e)  Certificate  of  expenditures.  This  is  a  new  form,  to  replace  similar  forms  in 
use  in  each  bureau  concerned. 

i  (/)  Requisition-receipt  (expendable  articles).  Replaces  present  A.  G.  O.  Form 
No.  543. 

( g )  Due  certificate.  Replaces  present  A.  G.  O.  Form  No.  544. 

( h )  Record  of  property  issued  on  memorandum  receipt.  Present  A.  G.  O.  Forms

(A)  RETURN. 

CHANGES  IN  ARMY  REGULATIONS  (PROPOSED). 

681  A.  There  shall  normally  be  but  one  accountable  officer  for  equipment  C  of  each 
bureau  for  a*  regiment,  separate  battalion,  field  hospital,  ambulance  company,  or  other 
tactical  organization  for  which  equipment  C  is  prescribed,  and  such  officer  will  ac¬ 
count  on  a  separate  return  for  all  articles  listed  in  the  various  equipment  manuals 
as  equipment  C,  and  he  will  be  referred  to  in  the  following  paragraphs  as  the  “unit 
supply  officer.  ’  ’  When  one  officer  serves  as  supply  officer  for  all  bureaus  he  will  be 
designated  as  “regimental,  field  hospital,  etc.,  supply  officer,”  but  when  different 
officers  serve  as  supply  officers  of  the  different  bureaus,  they  will  be  designated  as 
“regimental,  field  hospital,  etc.,  quartermaster,”  etc.  Should  local  conditions  make 
it  desirable  or  necessary  to  have  an  accounting  officer  for  any  detachment  serving 
separately  from  its  parent  organization,  one  may  be  designated  for  that  purpose  and 
the  articles  of  equipment  C  that  pertain  to  such  detachment  will  be  transferred  to  the 
designated  accountable  officer  of  the  detachment,  but  as  soon  as  the  conditions  making 


180 


ENGINEER  TRAINING  MANUAL - NO.  2. 


this  separate  accountability  necessary  cease,  the  account  will  be  closed  by  transferring 
back  to  the  unit  supply  officer  of  the  parent  organization  the  accountability  for  the 
property  which  had  been  carried  separately.  Batteries,  troops,  companies,  or  detach¬ 
ments  will  hold  on  memorandum  receipt  from  the  unit  supply  officer  of  the  unit  of 
which  they  form  a  part  articles  of  equipment  C  prescribed  in  the  equipment  manuals 
as  pertaining  to  them.  (C.  A.  It.  No. - ,  March  — ,  1917.) 

681B.  All  property  received  by  such  unit  supply  officer  will  be  accounted  for  on 
authorized  blanks  of  a  loose-leaf  character,  with  a  separate  sheet  for  each  article  and 
columns  for  date,  voucher  numbers,  debit  entries,  credit  entries,  and  balances,  i 
Vouchers  to  the  account  will  be  numbered  serially,  beginning  with  number  1,  through  : 
the  six  months’  accounting  period,  regardless  of  transfers  from  one  officer  to  another,  | 
and  will  be  posted  to  the  account  currently.  The  account  will  be  kept  in  duplicate —  ! 
an  original  and  a  carbon  copy.  On  June  30th  and  December  31st  of  each  year  the 
account  will  be  examined  as  provided  in  paragraph  681D,  and  the  original  record, 
together  with  all  vouchers  pertaining  thereto  not  previously  forwarded,  mailed  direct 
to  the  chief  of  the  bureau  to  which  the  property  pertains.  Before  being  mailed,  ; 
the  correctness  of  the  account,  together  with  a  notation  of  the  serial  numbers  of  the 
vouchers  pertaining  thereto,  will  be  certified  to  by  the  unit  supply  officer.  (C.  A.  R., 
No.  — — ,  March  — ,  1917.) 

681C.  When  an  officer  is  relieved  as  unit  supply  officer,  his  account  will  be  closed 
by  drawing  a  line  below  the  last  entry  on  each  sheet,  immediately  below  which  will 
be  entered  the  balance  of  the  article,  with  the  notation  opposite  thereto  “Received 
from  predecessor.”  When  a  transfer  has  been  made,  the  officer  making  the  transfer 
will  certify  to  the  correctness  of  the  account,  and  will,  after  the  account  has  been 
audited,  mail  direct  to  the  chief  of  the  bureau  to  which  the  property  pertains  the 
original  vouchers  to  the  account  up  to  the  date  of  transfer.  These  will  be  accompanied 
by  a  letter  of  transmittal,  which  will  enumerate  the  vouchers,  give  date  of  the  transfer, 
and  name  of  the  officer  to  whom  the  transfer  was  made.  The  receiving  officer  will  j 
acknowledge  receipt  of  the  balances  shown  on  the  return  account  by  signing  the 
receipt  attached  thereto,  and  will  furnish  a  signed  copy  of  such  receipt  to  the  trans¬ 
ferring  officer.  (C.  A.  R.,  No. - ,  March  — ,  1917.) 

681D.  All  returns  will  be  examined  in  the  regiment  or  other  similar  organization  j 
by  a  suitable  officer  (preferably  by  a  field  officer)  designated  for  that  purpose  by  the 
commanding  officer  thereof.  This  examination  will  be  made  at  the  end  of  each  ac-  i 
counting  period,  also  in  case  of  a  transfer  of  accountability  from  a  unit  supply  officer 
to  his  successor.  The  examining  officer  will  see  that  all  balances  have  been  correctly 
brought  forward,  that  all  property  on  debit  vouchers  has  been  taken  up  on  the  account, 
and  that  all  property  dropped  is  covered  by  authorized  credit  vouchers  which  com¬ 
ply  with  the  regulations.  In  so  far  as  these  features  of  the  account  are  concerned, 
and  to  the  extent  of  the  vouchers  actually  examined,  this  officer’s  examination  will 
be  final,  and  action  in  the  War  Department  bureaus  will  be  limited  to  seeing  that  all 
property  invoiced  to  unit  supply  officers  is  actually  taken  up  by  them,  and  that  ac-  ' 
countability  is  properly  placed  in  accordance  with  the  final  action  taken  on  survey 
reports.  He  will  certify  on  the  account  the  fact  of  examination  and  the  result  of  same,  ij 
He  will  also  see  that  the  authorized  allowances  are  entered  on  each  sheet  of  the  return,  ! 
and  on  the  completion  of  the  examination  report  in  writing  to  his  commanding  officer  i 
whether  or  not  the  balances  on  hand  are  in  agreement  with  those  prescribed  in  the 
unit  equipment  manuals,  mentioning  in  detail,  if  not  in  agreement,  the  more  important 
that  are  surplus  or  that  are  short,  and  stating  in  general  terms  the  minor  discrepancies,  j 
These  reports  will  be  kept  on  file  until  the  next  regular  inspection  of  the  command 
by  an  officer  of  the  Inspector  General’s  Department,  whose  duty  it  will  be  to  inves- 
tigate  and  make  report  on  the  causes  of  the  discrepancies,  and  the  steps  taken  by  the 
commanding  officer  to  remedy  them.  (C.  A.  R.,  No. - ,  March  — ,  1917.)

681E.  Under  normal  peace  conditions  all  organizations  will  keep  their  equipment 
C,  as  prescribed  for  their  actual  strength,  complete  and  in  serviceable  condition. 
The  remaining  equipment  required  for  the  unit  for  its  full  authorized  strength  will 
be  held  by  the  unit  supply  officer.  If  ordered  for  field  duty,  this  full  equipment  will 
be  taken  to  the  mobilization  and  concentration  points.  If  ordered  on  active  field  duty, 
where  equipment  B  and  equipment  A  not  required  for  the  actual  strength  can  not  b  e 
taken,  it  will  be  disposed  of  by  the  unit  supply  officer  as  conditions  require,  by  turn¬ 
ing  it  in  to  a  camp  supply  officer  or  depot,  or  by  disposing  of  it  as  otherwise  ordered. 
The  same  course  will  be  followed  at  any  time  during  active  field  service,  should 
equipment  become  surplus.  (C.  A.  R.,  No. - ,  March  — ,  1917.) 

681F.  Unit  supply  officers  will  obtain  replenishment  of  equipment  C  by  furnishing 
the  post,  camp,  division,  depot,  or  other  proper  supply  officer  in  exchange  for  the 
articles,  either — 

(1)  The  unserviceable  articles  to  be  replaced,  if  not  repairable  at  the  post.  No 
receipt  is  given  in  this  case,  but  should  the  condition  of  the  articles  not  be  manifestly 
due  to  fair  wear  and  tear  in  the  service,  the  issuing  officer  will  require  (a)  a  survey 
report,  or  (6)  the  necessary  evidence  for  a  survey  report,  or  (c)  if  that  can  not  be  fur¬ 
nished,  a  certificate  as  provided  in  paragraph  (3)  below;  or 

'  (2)  A  voucher  on  which  a  supply  officer  may  take  credit  for  the  articles.  This 

covers  cases  where  no  unserviceable  article  is  to  be  turned  in.  The  voucher  should 
be  turned  in  to  the  supply  officer  may  be  (a)  certificates  of  authorized  expenditures; 
(6)  certificates  of  destruction  for  articles  authorized  to  be  so  dropped  by  the  bureau 
to  which  the  property  pertains;  (c)  statements  of  charges  against  enlisted  men;  ( d ) 
abstracts  of  sales  when  authorized;  ( e )  survey  reports;  (/)  “I.  &  I.  ”  reports;  (g)  due 
certificates  completed  by  a  receipt  for  the  articles  to  be  replaced,  or  ( h )  other  author¬ 
ized  voucher;  or 

(3)  A  certificate  that  replenishment  is  immediately  necessary,  and  that  the  neces¬ 
sary  voucher  or  the  corresponding  unserviceable  articles  (with  survey  report,  if 
required)  will  later  be  furnished.  This  certificate  will  be  filed  with  the  receipt  for  the 
supplies  so  issued,  or  may  be  written  on  the  receipt  itself.  If  the  voucher  or  corre¬ 
sponding  unserviceable  article  is  supplied  before  the  end  of  the  accounting  period, 
the  accountable  officer  will  return  the  receipt  and  certificate.  If  not  furnished  before 
the  end  of  the  accounting  period,  the  certificate  and  receipt  may  be  used  as  a  credit 
voucher,  and  the  bureau  to  which  the  property  pertains  will  hold  the  signer  of  the 
certificate  and  receipt  accountable.  (C.  A.  R.  No. - ,  March  — ,  1916.) 

631G.  Each  voucher  used  for  replacement  under  paragraph  681F  (2)  will  contain  a 
certificate  signed  by  the  responsible  officer  that  he  has  received  all  the  articles  on  due 
certificates  therefor,  but  such  a  certificate  is  not  required  on  a  survey  report  when  the 
unserviceable  article  is  turned  in  in  accordance  with  paragraph  681F  (1),  as  in  that 

case  the  survey  report  is  not  to  be  used  as  a  credit  voucher.  (C.  A.  R.  No. - , 

March  — ,  1917.) 

681H.  When,  in  compliance  with  competent  orders,  equipment  C  has  been  reduced 
by  any  part  of  it  being  invoiced  by  the  unit  supply  officer  to  another  accountability, 
it  will  be  replaced  by  the  unit  supply  officer  certifying  the  facts  on  his  requisition,  or, 
if  the  replacement  is  to  be  made  by  verbal  or  other  informal  method,  a  like  certificate 
will  be  placed  on  the  receipt  for  the  property.  If  equipment  C  has  been  increased  in 
any  way,  above  that  prescribed,  the  surplus,  when  no  longer  necessary,  will  be 

invoiced  to  some  accountable  officer  at  the  first  opportunity.  (C.  A.  R.  No.  - , 

March  — ,  1917.) 

6811.  Replenishment  of  equipment  C  will  habitually  be  obtained  through  the  unit 
supply  officer,  but  no  entry  of  the  transaction  will  be  made  in  his  account  unless 
necessary.  In  emergencies,  an  organization  commander  may  obtain  replenishment 
by  any  of  the  methods  prescribed  for  the  unit  supply  officer,  but  when  such  action  is 


182 


ENGINEER  TRAINING  MANUAL — NO.  2. 


taken,  he  will  promptly  report  the  transaction  to  the  unit  supply  officer.  (C.  A.  R. 
No. - ,  March  — ,  1917.) 

681J.  All  garrison  equipment  and  other  Government  property  (including  ammuni¬ 
tion  for  target  practice),  except  equipment  C,  will  be  held  by  organization  com¬ 
manders  on  memorandum  receipt  from  the  post  or  other  supply  officers.  If  ordered 
to  field  duty,  all  articles  of  the  garrison  equipment  held  on  memorandum  receipt  by 
organizations  will  be  turned  over  to  the  post  supply  officer,  and  none  of  it  will  be  ; 
taken  with  the  organization,  except  as  may  be  specially  ordered  by  the  next  higher 
commander.  Replenishment  of  garrison  equipment  will  habitually  be  obtained  by 
Drganization  commanders  according  to  the  methods  prescribed  in  paragraph  681F  for 

unit  supply  officers  in  replenishing  equipment  C.  (C.  A.  R.  No.  - -,  March  — ,  \ 

1917.) 

681K.  When  a  regiment  or  other  organization  having  an  equipment  C  accounta¬ 
bility  is  separated  from  a  supply  depot  and  the  situation  demands  a  reserve  stock 
on  hand,  such  reserve  stock  will  be  accounted  for  on  the  same  return  and  in  the  same 
way  as  equipment  C,  but  so  soon  as  the  necessity  for  carrying  this  reserve  stock  ceases,  i; 
the  surplus  will  be  invoiced  to  the  proper  accountable  officer.  The  fact  of  having 
on  hand  a  reserve  will  not  be  authority  to  issue  on  memorandum  receipt  to  a  company 
or  other  smaller  organizations-  any  property  in  excess  of  its  prescribed  equipment  C. 

If  articles  not  listed  as  part  of  equipment  C  are  necessary,  they  will  likewise  be  carried 
on  the  same  return,  but  as  soon  as  a  post,  depot,  or  camp  supply  officer  is  designated,  I 
such  property  will  be  invoiced  to  him.  (C.  A.  R.,  No. - ,  March  — ,  1917.) 

681L.  No  unit  supply  officer  will  be  appointed  post  or  camp  supply  officer  except 
when  no  other  officer  for  this  duty  is  available.  (C.  A.  R.,  No. - ,  March  — ,  1917.) 

681N.  All  expendable  articles,  spare  parts,  cleaning  materials,  and  preservatives 
pertaining  to  equipment  C  will  be  issued  to  unit  supply  officers  (or  in  coast  defenses 
to  organization  commanders).  These  officers  will  furnish  receipts  to  the  accountable 
officer,  but  will  not  further  account  for  the  material.  The  receipts  will  serve  as  vouch¬ 
ers  on  which  the  material  will  be  dropped  by  the  accountable  officer.  In  cases  where 
allowances  are  fixed  by  orders  or  regulations  the  receipts  will  contain  a  certificate 
signed  by  the  unit  supply  officer  (or  in  coast  defenses  by  the  organization  commander), 
that  the  articles  receipted  for,  considering  those  previously  drawn  for  the  period,  do 
not  exceed  the  prescribed  allowances.  In  such  cases,  approval  by  the  commanding 
officer  is  not  required.  If,  however,  articles  or  material  in  excess  of  the  allowances 
are  required,  they  will  be  supplied  on  requisition,  which  must  show  the  necessity 
for  the  excess  issue,  and  be  approved  by  the  division  or  department  commander 
(C.  A.  R.,  No. ,  March  — ,  1917.) 

1086.  Unless  otherwise  specially  directed  by  the  Secretary  of  War,  there  will  be  at  j 
each  military  post  or  station  but  one  accountable  officer  in  the  Quartermaster  Corps,  I 
and  he  will  account  for  all  quartermaster  supplies  there  in  use  or  in  store,  except  the  j 
equipment  C  as  prescribed  for  an  organization,  and  this  will  be  accounted  for  by  the  uni 
supply  officer  of  that  organization.  (C.  A.  R.,  No. - ,  March  — ,  1917.) 

1106.  All  means  of  public  transportation  at  a  post,  except  that  provided  as  part  of  the  j 
equipemnt  C  of  a  tactical  unit,  will  be  accounted  for  by  the  quartermaster,  and  will  be 
under  his  charge  except  as  provided  in  paragraph  1427.  Means  of  transportation  , 
provided  as  a  part  of  the  equipment  C  of  a  unit  will  be  accounted  for  by  the  unit  supply  I 
officer.  Commanding  officers  will  cause  mounted  organizations  to  be  provided  daily  j 

with  the  proper  facilities  for  policing  stables  and  hauling  forage.  (C.  A.  R.,  No. - , 

March  — ,1917.) 

1179.  (Changed  by  C.  A.  R.,  No.  26,  W.  D.,  1915,  and  C.  A.  R.,  No.  30,  July  24,  ! 
1915.)  •  There  will  be  furnished  by  the  Quartermaster  Corps  to  all  duly  authorized  1 
bands  *  *  *  The  commanding  officer  of  the  band  will  be  responsible  for  all  the 
property  specified,  and  it  will  be  accounted  for  by  the  unit  supply  officer  on  the  same  \ 
return  and  in  the  same  manner  as  the  articles  pertaining  to  the  equipment  C  of  the  unit.  I

When  an  instrument  has  become  unserviceable  it  will  be  submitted  to  a  surveying 
officer.  *  *  *  Requisitions  for  band  instruments  will  be  submitted  to  the  desig¬ 
nated  supply  depots  through  the  department  headquarters.  (C.  A.  R.,  No. - , 

March  — ,  1917.) 

1282.  The  quartermaster  will  be  accountable  for  and  will  carry  on  his  property 
accounts  all  cooking  apparatus  supplied  by  the  Quartermaster  Corps,  and  will  fur¬ 
nish  to  commanding  officers  of  organizations  and  detachments  the  necessary  authorized 
articles  of  the  same  on  approved  requisitions,  the  issues  to  be  made  on  memorandum 
receipts.  Bake  ovens  will  be  dropped  from  his  property  accounts  when  permanently 
installed  at  posts.  Articles  of  cooking  apparatus  pertaining  to  the  equipment  C  of  a 

unit  will  he  accounted  for  hy  the  unit  supply  officer.  (C.  A.  R.,  No.  - ,  March  — , 

1917.) 

1535.  Articles  of  personal  equipments  or  other  ordance  property  which  a  detached 
soldier  carries  with  him,  or  for  which  he  may  be  indebted  to  the  United  States  at 
the  time  of  his  transfer,  will  be  entered  on  quadruplicate  invoice  and  receipt  transfer 
blanks  (Ordnance  Department  Form  No.  152).  The  blanks  will,  when  practicable, 
indicate  the  destination  of  the  soldier.  Each  of  the  four  copies  will  be  signed  by  the 
accountable  officer,  or  the  issuing  officer  in  his  name,  and  by  the  soldier  acknowledg¬ 
ing  receipt  of  the  stores,  including  these  missing.  Two  of  these  designated  blanks 
will  be  forwarded  with  the  descriptive  list  or  descriptive  and  assignment  card  of  the 
soldier;  the  other  two  constitute  the  voucher  ( original  and  retained  copies)  under  which 
the  accountable  officer  will  drop  from  his  return  the  articles  enumerated  on  the 
voucher,  or  secure  replacement  of  the  articles  hy  turning  them  over  to  the  post  or  other 
supply  officer. 

On  arrival  of  the  soldier  at  his  destination,  all  articles  appearing  on  the  transfer 
blank  accompanying  the  descriptive  list  or  descriptive  and  assignment  card  will 
be  taken  up  by  the  officer  accountable  for  the  property  of  the  organization  to  which  he 
reports,  who  will  receipt  for  the  same  on  this  blank  and  forward  one  of  the  two  signed 
copies  of  it  immediately  to  the  Chief  of  Ordnance,  and  keep  the  other  copy  for  file  with 
the  retained  copy  of  his  return.  All  articles  missing  on  arrival  will  be  charged  against 
the  soldier  in  the  usual  manner. 

When  enlisted  men  are  transferred  in  detachments,  with  an  officer  or  noncom¬ 
missioned  officer  in  charge,  from  a  recruit  depot,  and  each  man  is  equipped  identi¬ 
cally  and  none  of  them  are  indebted  for  other  articles  of  ordnance  property,  the 
articles  of  ordnance  property  carried  by  them  will  all  be  entered  on  but  one  invoice 
and  receipt  blank,  prepared  in  quadruplicate,  on  Ordnance  Department  Form  No. 
152-D.  Each  of  the  four  copies  will  be  signed  by  the  accountable  officer  and  by  the

CHANGES  IN  ARMY  REGULATIONS  (PROPOSED). 

,  681F.  Unit  supply  officers  will  obtain  replenishment  of  equipment  C  by  furnishing 

the  post,  camp,  division,  depot,  or  other  proper  supply  officer  in  exchange  for  the 
articles,  either — 

(1)  The  unserviceable  articles  to  be  replaced,  if  not  repairable  at  the  post;  no 
receipt  is  given  in  this  case,  but  should  the  condition  of  the  articles  not  be  manifestly 
due  to  fair  wear  and  tear  in  the  service,  the  issuing  officer  will  require  (a)  a  survey 
report,  or  ( b )  the  necessary  evidence  for  a  survey  report,  or  (c)  if  that  can  not  be  fur¬ 
nished,  a  certificate  as  provided  in  paragraph  (3)  below;  or 

i  (2)  A  voucher  on  which  a  supply  officer  may  take  credit  for  the  articles.  This 
covers  cases  where  no  unserviceable  article  is  to  be  turned  in.  The  voucher  to  be 
turned  in  to  the  supply  officer  may  be  (a)  certificates  of  authorized  expenditures; 
(6)  certificates  of  destruction  for  articles  authorized  to  be  so  dropped  by  the  bureau 
to  which  the  property  pertains;  (c)  statements  of  charges  against  enlisted  men;  ( d ) 
abstract  of  sales  when  authorized;  ( e )  survey  reports;  (/)  “I.  &  I.”  reports;  ( g )  due 
certificates  completed  by  a  receipt  for  the  articles  to  be  replaced,  or  ( h )  other  author¬ 
ized  voucher;  or 

(3)  A  certificate  that  replenishment  is  immediately  necessary  and  that  the  neces¬ 
sary  voucher  or  the  corresponding  unserviceable  articles  (with  survey  report,  if 
required)  will  later  be  furnished.  This  certificate  will  be  filed  with  the  receipt  for 
the  supplies  so  issued,  or  may  be  written  on  the  receipt  itself.  If  the  voucher  or  cor¬ 
responding  unserviceable  article  is  supplied  before  the  end  of  the  accounting  period, 
the  accountable  officer  will  return  the  receipt  and  certificate.  If  not  furnished  before 
the  end  of  the  accounting  period,  the  certificate  and  receipt  may  be  used  as  a  credit 
voucher,  and  the  bureau  to  which  the  property  pertains  will  hold  the  signer  of  the 
certificate  and  receipt  accountable.  '  (C.  A.  R.,  No.  - - ,  March  — ,  1916.) 

681C.  When  an  officer  is  relieved  as  unit  supply  officer,  his  account  will  be  closed 
by  drawing  a  line  below  the  last  entry  on  each  sheet,  immediately  below  which  will  be 
entered  the  balance  of  the  article,  with  the  notation  opposite  thereto  “Received  from 
predecessor.”  When  a  transfer  has  been  made,  the  officer  making  the  transfer  will 
certify  to  the  correctness  of  the  account,  and  will,  after  the  account  has  been  audited, 
mail  direct  to  the  chief  of  the  bureau  to  which  the  property  pertains,  the  original 
vouchers  to  the  account  up  to  the  date  of  transfer.  These  will  be  accompanied  by  a 
letter  of  transmittal,  which  will  enumerate  the  vouchers,  give  date  of  the  transfer 
and  name  of  the  officer  to  whom  the  transfer  was  made.  The  receiving  officer  will 
acknowledge  receipt  of  the  balances  shown  on  the  return  account  by  signing  the 
receipt  attached  thereto,  and  will  furnish  a  signed  copy  of  such  receipt  to  the  trans¬ 
ferring  officer.  (C.  A.  R.,  No.  - - ,  March  — ,  1917.) 

681H.  When,  in  compliance  with  competent  orders,  equipment  C  has  been  reduced 
by  any  part  of  it  being  invoiced  by  the  unit  supply  officer  to  another  accountability, 
it  will  be  replaced  by  the  unit  supply  officer  certifying  the  facts  on  his  requisition, 
or,  if  the  replacement  is  to  made  by  verbal  or  other  informal  method,  a  like  certifi¬ 
cate  will  be  placed  on  the  receipt  for  the  property.  If  equipment  C  has  been  increased 
in  any  way  above  that  prescribed,  the  surplus,  when  no  longer  necessary,  will  be 

invoiced  to  some  accountable  officer  at  the  first  opportunity.  (C.  A.  R.,  No.  - , 

March  — ,  1917.) 

717.  (Changed  by  C.  A.  R..  No.  30,  July  24,  1915.)  On  the  approved  recommenda¬ 
tion  of  a  surveying  officer,  the  following  classes  of  property  will  be  destroyed:  (1) 
Clothing  infected  with  contagious  diseases;  (2)  stores  that  have  become  so  deterior¬ 
ated  as  to  endanger  health  or  injure  other  stores;  and  (3)  unserviceable  property  of 
no  salable  value  submitted  to  a  surveying  officer  under  the  provisions  of  paragraph 
678.  The  decision  of  the  commanding  officer  will  be  final  as  to  whether  such  prop¬ 
erty  has  salable  value.

ENGINEER  TRAINING^  MANUAL - NO.  2. 


When  the  disposition  of  unserviceable  articles  is  covered  by  specific  instructions 
******* 

A  certificate  of  the  witnessing  officer  that  the  property  has  been  destroyed  as 
authorized  will  be  appended  to  the  report.  (C.  A.  R.,  No. - ,  March  — ,  1917.) 

30.  SURVEYS  OF  PUBLIC  PROPERTY. 

A  company  commander  who  draws  public  property  on  memorandum  receipt  from 
a  supply  officer  for  the  use  of  his  organization  is  responsible  for  the  property  and  in 
case  of  its  loss,  damage,  or  destruction  he  will  have  to  pay  for  same  unless  relieved 
of  his  responsibility  by  an  approved  survey.  (Pars.  657  and  710,  A.  R.) 

The  property  which  can  properly  be  acted  upon  by  a  surveying  officer  may  be 
divided  into  five  classes:  (1)  Property  worn  out  by  fair  wear  and  tear  in  the  military 
service  which  has  no  salable  value  (par.  678,  A.  R.);  (2)  property  which  has  been 
rendered  unserviceable  from  causes  other  than  fair  wear  and  tear  (par.  678,  A.  R.); 
(3)  property  lost  through  the  desertion  of  a  soldier  (par.  116,  A.  R.);  (4)  individual 
equipment  lost  by  enlisted  men  when  they  request  a  survey  before  being  charged 
with  the  property  (par.  686,  A.  R.);  (5)  other  lost  or  damaged  property  drawn  by  a 
company  commander  for  the  use  and  equipment  of  his  organization.  There  are 
other  circumstances  in  which  articles  of  public  property  can  or  should  be  surveyed 
but  these  five  cases  cover  practically  all  those  which  will  come  before  a  company 
commander. 

Paragraphs  678  and  717,  Army  Regulations,  provide  for  the  disposition  of  unserv¬ 
iceable  public  property  and  of  property  which  can  be  destroyed  on  an  approved 
survey. 

Paragraph  711,  Army  Regulations,  provides  for  the  appointment  of  the  surveying 
officer.  The  surveying  officer  as  far  as  the  company  commander  is  concerned  will  be 
appointed  by  either  the  post  or  regimental  commander  who  is  the  convening  authority 
spoken  of  in  paragraph  716,  Army  Regulations,  and  elsewhere. 

When  an  officer  responsible  for  public  property  desires  to  have  same  surveyed  he 
makes  out  a  survey  report  and  sends  it  to  the  proper  convening  authority,  usually  the 
regimental  commander  on  posts  where  more  than  one  regiment  is  stationed  for  the 
appointment  of  a  surveying  officer.  This  report  must  contain  a  short  recital  of  the 
circumstances  attending  the  loss,  etc.,  of  the  article,  the  list  of  witnesses,  if  any,  and 
such  certificates  or  affidavits  as  the  responsible  officer  thinks  necessary  or  desirable 
to  properly  present  his  case.  Surveys  will  be  submitted  as  soon  as  possible  after  the 
loss,  damage,  etc.,  of  the  article  and  in  every  case  within  30  days  after  the  discovery 
of  such  loss  or  damage,  unless  exceptional  circumstances,  which  will  be  explained  by 
the  officer’s  certificates,  prevent  such  action  within  that  period.  (Par.  713,  A.  R.) 
The  survey  report  will  be  prepared  in  triplicate  and  separate  reports  will  be  made 
out  for  each  class  of  property.  (Par.  716,  A.  R.) 

An  officer  appointed  as  surveying  officer  should  make  his  investigation  of  the  case 
as  complete  as  may  be  possible  or  necessary  and  should  not  make  his  recommendations 
until  he  has  assured  himself  that  they  are  proper.  In  case  there  is  insufficient  evi¬ 
dence  on  the  survey  report  to  justify  the  making  of  a  recommendation  he  can  return 
the  survey  to  the  convening  authority  and  ask  to  be  furnished  with  further  evidence, 
affidavits,  or  certificates.  (Par.  713,  A.  R.) 

It  must  be  remembered  that  the  functions  of  a  surveying  officer  are  purely  advisory 
and  his  actions  consist  entirely  of  recommendations,  these  recommendations  embody¬ 
ing  the  opinions  he  has  formed  from  his  investigation  of  the  case.  (Par.  715,  A.  R.) 
After  the  action  of  the  surveying  officer,  the  survey  report  goes  to  the  convening 
authority  who  will  either  approve  or  disapprove  of  the  former’s  recommendations. 


ENGINEER  TRAINING  MANUAL - NO.  2. 


193 


If  the  surveying  officer  recommends  that  the  responsible  officer  be  relieved  of  his 
responsibility  and  if  the  convening  authority  approves,  the  responsible  officer  can 
use  this  approved  survey  as  a  property  voucher,  provided  the  value  of  the  property 
listed  on  the  survey  does  not  exceed  $500,  in  which  case  the  next  higher  administra¬ 
tive  commander  will  review  the  case  and  with  his  action  it  is  complete.  (Pars.  718, 
719,  A.  R.) 

Paragraphs  718,  719,  Army  Regulations,  provide  for  the  disposition  of  the  different 
copies  of  a  survey  and  enumerate  different  cases  in  which  the  survey  must  be  sent  to 
the  next  higher  administrative  commander  for  review. 

Paragraph  722,  Army  Regulations,  provides  that  properly  approved  survey  reports 
may  be  submitted  as  vouchers  to  property  returns  but  they  are  not  to  be  considered 
conclusive  until  accepted  by  the  Secretary  of  War.  Reports  of  surveys  are  examined 
m  that  bureau  of  the  War  Department  issuing  the  property  and  if  the  examination 
brings  out  serious  errors  in  either  the  investigation  or  finding,  they  will  not  be  ac¬ 
cepted  as  sufficient  vouchers  and  the  officer  submitting  them  may  be  duly  notified  in 
order  that  he  may  make  explanations  or  appeal  to  the  Secretary  of  War.

INSTRUCTIONS. 

1.  Use,  number  of  copies , 
and  disposition. — This  form 
will  be  used  in  making  re¬ 
ports  of  survey  on  all  classes 
of  public  property  acted 
upon  by  a  surveying  officer. 
Each  report  will  be  made  in 
triplicate  and  disposed  of 
as  prescribed  in  Army 
Regulations.  In  the  col¬ 
umn  headed  “Date  and 
Circumstances  ”  will  be  en¬ 
tered  a  statement  of  the 
circumstances  attending 
the  loss,  damage,  or  de¬ 
struction  of  the  articles  sur¬ 
veyed,  and,  in  the  case  of 
ordnance  stores,  the  date  of 
their  receipt. 

2.  Classes  of  property. — 
Property  of  different  staff 
departments,  or  property 
carried  on  separate  returns, 
will  not  be  entered  on  the 
same  report,  but  separate 
reports  will  be  made  for 
each  class  of  property. 

3.  Documentary  evidence. 
— Where  documentary  evi¬ 
dence  is  submitted,  it  will 
be  marked  “Exhibit  A,” 
‘  ‘  Exhibit  B ,  ’  ’  etc . .  and  will 
be  so  noted  and  referred  to 
by  the  surveying  officer  in 
his  report.  All  documenta¬ 
ry  evidence  will  be  inserted 
and  fastened  between  the 
leaves  of  the  report. 

4.  When  any  stores  are 
included  that  have  been 
lost,  destroyed,  or  damaged 
by  means  other  than  fair 
wear  and  tear  in  the  ser¬ 
vice,  the  facts  will  be 


[Fourth  page  (survey).] 

sworn  to  as  indicated  on 
page  2.  If  the  oath  is  sub¬ 
scribed  to  by  the  respon¬ 
sible  officer  the  certificate 
need  not  be  subscribed  to. 
If  the  oath  is  subscribed  to 
by  any  other  individual 
than  the  responsible  officer, 
he  will  subscribe  to  the 
certificate. 

5.  In  case  property  that 
is  unserviceable  through 
fair  wear  and  tear  in  the 
service  only  is  covered  by 
the  survey  the  certificate 
only  will  be  completed  by 
the  signature  of  the  respon¬ 
sible  officer,  but  the  sur¬ 
veying  officer  will  exercise 
great  care  in  examining 
such  property  and  state  in 
his  findings  whether  he 
found  that  its  unservice¬ 
able  condition  is  due  to  fair 
wear  and  tear  in  the  ser¬ 
vice.  In  case  its  unser¬ 
viceable  condition  is  not 
found  to  be  due  to  such 
cause  he  will  fix  responsi¬ 
bility  for  such  damage  upon 
the  proper  party. 

6.  Army  Regulations. — 
The  survey  of  property  is 
covered  in  paragraphs  710- 
726,  Army  Regulations 
(1913),  which  define  the 
duties  of  surveying  officers, 
fix  the  power  of  the  con¬ 
vening  authority,  and  give 
instructions  relative  to  the 
preparation  and  disposition 
of  survey  reports.  For  sur¬ 
vey  of  band  instruments, 
see  also  A.  R.  1179;  of  china 
and  glassware  of  outgoing 
organizations,  see  also  A. 
R.  1023;  of  silken  colors, 
standards,  and  guidons,  see 
also  A.  R!  239. 

7.  For  classes  of  unser¬ 
viceable  property  that  may 
be  destroyed  or  turned  in 
to  depot  on  approved  rec¬ 
ommendation  of  a  survey¬ 
ing  officer,  see  A.  R.  678, 
717,  907,  1520,  1534,  and 
1537,  as  amended. 

8.  Brass  trimmings. — Be¬ 
fore  leather  or  other  stores 
belonging  to  the  Ordnance 
Department  are  destroyed 
or  broken  up,  all  rings, 
buckles,  and  other  trim¬ 
mings  of  brass  will  be  cut 
off  by  enlisted  labor  and 
turned  over  to  the  post  ord¬ 
nance  officer,  and  the  cer¬ 


tificate  of  the  officer  wit¬ 
nessing  the  destruction  will 
contain  a  statement  to  the 
effect  that  these  articles 
have  been  removed  and 
turned  over  to  the  post  ord¬ 
nance  officer.  (For  the  dis¬ 
position  of  this  material  by 
post  ordnance  officers,  see 
par.  Ill,  General  Orders 
No.  9,  War  Department, 
1911.) 

9.  Loss  of  small  arms. — 
When  a  survey  is  made  on 
the  loss  of  small  arms,  the 
report  must  show  whether 
or  not  the  arms  were  stored 
at  the  time  of  the  loss  in 
arm  racks  or  arm  lockers 
furnished  by  the  Ordnance 
Department  for  their  safe¬ 
keeping,  or  were  being  used 
at  the  time  in  the  perform¬ 
ance  of  military  duty.  In 
all  cases  the  report  must 
show  clearly  whether  or  not 
every  reasonable  precau¬ 
tion  was  taken  to  prevent 
the  loss.  In  this  connec¬ 
tion  see  paragraph  5  of  the 
G.  0.  No.  20,  War  Dept., 
May  26,  1916,  regarding 
issue  of  arm  racks  and  arm 
chests  for  the  safe-keeping 
small  of  arms  etc. 

10.  Survey  reports  sub- 
vouchers  to  statements  of 
charges. — Reports  of  survey 
authorizing  charges  against 
enlisted  men,  including  de¬ 
serters,  are  sub  vouchers  to 
the  Statement  of  Charges 
and  will  accompany  it. 

11.  Desertions. — When¬ 
ever  public  property  is  lost 
in  consequence  of  the  de¬ 
sertion  of  an  enlisted  man, 
a  surveying  officer  will  re¬ 
port  on  the  missing  prop¬ 
erty,  but  its  value  can  not 
be  charged  against  the  de¬ 
serter  in  the  absence  of  an 
approved  report  of  survey 
to  that  effect.  (Pars.  116 
and  687,  A.  R.,  1913.) 

12.  Quantity,  name  of  ar¬ 
ticle,  and  money  value  will 
be  entered  by  the  officer 
making  up  the  survey  re¬ 
port.  Column  B  (dispo¬ 
sition)  will  be  completed 
by  the  surveying  officer 
and  columns  C  and  D  by 
the  supply  officer,  who 
makes  replenishment  and 
uses  the  report  as  a  voucher.

by  the  proper  officer  will  constitute  a  valid  voucher  for  file  with  the  return  of  the 
accountable  officer.

INSTRUCTIONS. 


1.  During  the  first  tour  of  guard  re¬ 
ported  on  this  form,  the  names  of  all 
prisoners  in  confinement  at  the  begin¬ 
ning  of  the  tour  will  be  recorded  in  one 
list  (on  the  pages  prepared  for  that  pur¬ 
pose),  and  no  new  fist  will  be  made  dur¬ 
ing  the  month.  The  names  of  general 
prisoners  'and  all  entries  pertaining  to 
them  will  be  recorded  with  red  ink;  the 
names  of  all  other  prisoners  (enlisted 
men)  and  all  entries  pertaining  to  them 
will  be  recorded  with  black  ink.  The 
names  of  the  general  prisoners  in  con¬ 
finement  at  the  beginning  of  the  tour  will 
be  recorded  at  the  head  of  the  list  of 
prisoners,  beginning  with  name  of  the 
general  prisoner  who  has  the  longest  re¬ 
maining  period  of  confinement  to  serve, 
and  following  with  the  names  of  other 
general  prisoners  in  the  order  of  the 
length  of  their  remaining  periods  of  con¬ 
finement.  The  names  of  the  enlisted 
men  then  serving  Sentences  of  confine¬ 
ment  will  follow  next  in  the  same  order. 
The  names  of  the  other  prisoners  then  in 
confinement  (enlisted  men  not  under¬ 
going  sentences  of  confinement)  will  next 
be  recorded  in  the  order  of  the  dates  of 
their  respective  commitments;  and  the 
names  of  all  prisoners,  including  general 
prisoners,  will  be  numbered  consecutively. 
The  interval  between  a  name  and  the 
one  preceding  it  should  not  be  greater 
than  necessary.  The  minimum  and 
normal  allowance  will  be  two  of  the  ruled 
spaces  for  each  prisoner.  No  attempt  will 
be  made  by  means  of  entries  on  the  re¬ 
port  other  than  by  the  prescribed  column 
entries  to  designate  or  distinguish  prison¬ 
ers  awaiting  trial  or  result  of  trial. 

2.  The  name  of  each  prisoner  confined 
after  the  list  hereinbefore  prescribed  is 
made  and  during  the  month  covered  by 
the  report  will  be  recorded,  without  re¬ 
gard  to  classification,  next  after  the  name 
of  the  prisoner  last  entered  on  the  original 
list,  and  will  be  numbered  accordingly. 
Sufficient  space  will  be  left  above  the 
name  of  the  first  prisoner  confined  during 
each  guard  tour,  including  the  first  tour 
of  the  month,  for  this  heading:  “Confined 

during  the  tour  of  - ”  (described  by 

dates,  e.  g.,  June  25-26,  1909).  All 
entries  and  parts  of  entries  pertaining  to 
general  prisoners  will  invariably  be  made 
with  red  ink. 

3.  When  a  prisoner  is  released  or 
dropped  during  the  period  covered  by 
the  report,  a  notation  to  that  effect  will 
be  made  opposite  his  name  in  the  column 
for  remarks.  This  notation  will  set  forth 
briefly  the  fact,  with  the  date  on  which 
the  prisoner  is  released  or  dropped,  and, 
except  in  the  case  of  a  prisoner  released  at 


expiration  of  sentence ,  the  authority  for 
releasing  or  dropping  him.  His  name 
will  then  be  lined  out  with  black  ink  in  the 
case  of  a  general  prisoner,  and  with  red 
ink  in  all  other  cases.  Whenever  a  pris¬ 
oner  is  released  or  dropped  the  fining  out 
of  his  name  will  be  initialed  immediately 
below  the  name  by  the  officer  of  the  guard 
or  if  there  be  no  officer  of  the  guard,  by 
the  officer  of  the  day. 

4.  When  in  the  case  of  a  prisoner  not 
serving  sentence  notice  of  his  sentence 
is  received,  the  term  and  date  of  expira¬ 
tion  of  the  confinement,  if  any,  will  be 
entered  in  the  proper  columns  opposite 
his  name,  and  the  authority  therefor  will 
be  noted  in  the  column  for  remarks.  If 
the  sentence  includes  dishonorable  dis¬ 
charge  and  confinement,  the  entries  will 
be  made  with  red  ink,  and  include  in  the 
column  for  remarks  this  additional  entry: 

“General  prisoner  since  - ”  date  of 

discharge). 

5.  The  total  number  of  prisoners  for 
which  the  guard  is  accountable  at  any 
time  may  be  ascertained  readily  by  sub¬ 
tracting  the  number  of  names  fined  out 
from  the  total  number  of  names  entered, 
that  is  to  say,  from  the  number  given  to 
last  name  on  the  fist. 

6.  Forfeiture  of  “good  conduct  time” 
and  orders  modifying  sentence  will  be 
noted  in  the  column  for  remarks  opposite 
the  appropriate  name  in  the  fist  of  prison¬ 
ers,  but  the  date  of  expiration  of  sentence 
recorded  will  not  be  changed,  except  as 
provided  in  paragraph  9. 

7.  Gains  and  losses  numerically  re¬ 
ported  in  the  “Summary  of  Prisoners” 
will  be  noted  by  name  in  the  space  for 
remarks  opposite  the  summary,  and  after 
each  name  will  be  entered  the  serial 
number  given  the  name  in  the  fist  of 
prisoners,  e.  g.,  “Released:  General 
prisoners  Smith,  10;  Jones,  21;”  etc. 
Changes  in  the  personnel  of  the  guard  will 
be  noted  in  this  space  also.  Hours  and 
results  of  inspections  and  roll  calls  will 
not  be  recorded  on  this  form,  but  they 
may,  under  the  direction  of  the  com¬ 
manding  officer,  be  made  the  subject  of 
a  memorandum  report. 

8.  When  it  is  known  in  advance  that 
the  strength  of  the  daily  guard  that  will 
be  required  is  so  great  that  one  page  of 
the  Guard  Report  will  be  insufficient  for 
the  daily  fist  of  the  guard,  provision  will 
be  made  to  meet  the  deficiency  by  stitch¬ 
ing  into  the  middle  of  the  Guard  Report, 
before  beginning  its  use  for  the  month,  a 
sufficient  number  of  extra  sheets,  which 
will  be  obtained  by  requisition  upon 
The  Adjutant  General  of  the  Army.  This 
will  permit  of  using  more  than  one  page  of 


216 


ENGINEER  TRAINING  MANUAL — NO.  2. 


the  report,  under  the  caption  “List  of 
the  guard,”  for  the  guard  of  each  day. 
When  more  than  one  page  of  the  report 
is  used  for  the  list  of  the  guard  of  one  day, 
the  word  “Continued”  will  be  written 
after  the  words  “List  of  the  Guard”  at 
the  top  of  each  additional  page  so  used, 
and  the  numbers  printed  under  the 
heading  “No.  of  Post”  on  each  addi¬ 
tional  page  so  used  will  be  changed  by 
prefixing  the  proper  numeral  to  each 
of  those  numbers  so  that  they  will  read 
11,  12,  13,  etc. 


9.  At  the  end  of  the  month  covered  by 
any  report,  the  names  of  all  prisoners  not 
lined  out  on  that  report  will  be  trans¬ 
ferred  with  all  entries  pertaining  to  them 
to  a  new  report  and  will  be  entered  in 
the  new  list,  in  accordance  with  instruc¬ 
tions  1  and  2,  and  thereafter  the  remain¬ 
ing  instructions,  including  this  one,  will 
apply.  At  this  time  the  column  entries 
which  are  affected  by  the  remarks  will 
be  changed  to  conform  thereto,  and  re¬ 
marks  so  incorporated  will  not  be  repeated 
on  the  new  list.
